All I have left on my power disc brake conversion is to install the calipers and bleed the brakes. I have replaced all the brakes lines in the front and all the way to the axel in the rear. What is the best way to bleed the brakes?
Are you saying you don't?Nope! :no:
You can have the car shut off. That way you don't have to breathe exhaust... unless you like that sort of thing... :turn:
It worked great for my car, it seemed to take for ever pumping them, so I gave up and put the vacuum on it 2 minutes later they were bled. The bottle set up as mentioned above is a good one too.:yes:Guys - I speak from experience near and dear to my heart.
Vacuum bleeding is just not enough.I tried using a venturi bleeder (hooks up to shop air) and also a Mightyvac on my new lines. It just didn't pull enough vacuum to get the fluid moving. :no: Hydraulic tension is a PITA!
Plus... you don't need to buy any tools with the 2 man method.My wife did all the stomping on the pedal, so you don't need to be He-Man or a Tour de France superstar to be a good helper.
Do those springs have a top and a bottom?Also be sure that you have the springs sitting in the pockets correctly on the lower A-arms.
